Feel
the Power! The 9th Seven-Figure Sale Reported So Far This Year Tops
This Week's Sales Chart

The big news in the domain
aftermarket this week is the $1,261,000 sale of Power.com
that we told you about in a Lowdown
post Tuesday (Nov. 11). George
Kirikos uncovered the private transaction while looking
through a 3rd quarter SEC
filing made by the buyer, Power Integrations,
a large Silicon Valley company that purchased the domain as an upgrade to
their present address, PowerInt.com.
The deal was co-brokered by Scott Smith and WebsiteProperties.com.

In addition to tipping us off on the sale,
Kirikos noted that this is the 9th seven-figure sale reported so
far this year, tying 2007 for the most reported
sales at that level in any given year. We still have more than a
month and half left in the 2014 sales season so a new standard may
be set on that front before the new year arrives.

Sedo
claimed the #2 spot on this week's all extension Top 20 Sales
Chart with EasyBet.com at $43,750. Their $25,000
sale of MGP.com also gave them a share of the #3 slot
alongside RiskJobs.com, a name sold by Doron Vermaat
of Efty.com
for the same price. Sedo then rounded out the first five with
iNavigate.com at $22,500.

Sedo went on to pile up 15 of the 23 chart
entries (the extra spots resulted from a 7-way tie for the final
position). Their sale of #6 OAL.com at $19,999 helped
the .coms sweep the first 7 chart entries and 14 places
overall.

The non .com gTLDs were next with a
half-dozen representatives on the Big Board, led by Flippa.com's
$17,500 sale of Drones.net. The other five sales in this
category were all premium .global domains sold by the
operator the DotGlobal
new gTLD. That group was headed by #9 (tie) Jobs.global at $15,000.

The three remaining chart openings went to
ccTLDs with all three sold by Sedo. The highest one, #11 Gravity.co.uk
raked in $12,720.

Here is how all of the sales leaders
stacked up for the week ending Sunday, November 9:

Keep in mind that these are the highest
value cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past week. This column is meant to be an educational tool,
not a complete list documenting ALL high
value domain sales. Such a list is impossible to produce
because many sales are kept private at the insistence of
buyers, sellers or both. Our procedure for verifying the
accuracy of domain sales reports is available here.

Sedo led the .com supporting
cast of four-figure sales with MXE.com at $9,999.
Mytic.com made $7,500 and two others - Mylogis.com
and BankWeb.com - went for $7,000 each. Yesing.com
yielded $6,823 while McBeans.com and Sandaly.com
drew $6,250 apiece.

Sedo had 46 more four-figure .com sales ranging from $2,000
to $4,999 that are listed in the table below:

Country
Codes

The ccTLDs were led by the three five-figure sales you saw on the all extension leader board at
the top of this report, led by Gravity.co.uk at
$12,720 via Sedo. The highest sale in this category that you haven't
seen yet is #4 on our latest weekly Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart.
That is Starmaker.tv, a name that Sedo sold for $8,666.

Sedo rounded out the first five with Rieger.de
at $8,124 and went on to sweep 19 of the 21 chart entries
overall (the extra spot resulted from a tie for the final
position). Golem.eu
had the only top ten entry that Sedo didn't get, banking $4,999
for #10 (tie) ZMP.eu. DomainLore.co.uk
also helped keep Sedo from running the board by selling #15 Brixton.co.uk
for $3,261.

Germany's .de won the extension race with five chart
entries, nipping the four posted by Great Britain's .co.uk.
Tuvalu's .tv was next with three and was the only other
TLD with multiple chart entries.

Here is how the
country code leaders stacked up for the week ending Sunday,
November 9:

The non
.com gTLDs were led by the half-dozen five-figure sales from
this group that you
saw on the all extension leader board earlier, with Flippa.com's
$17,500 sale of Drones.net setting the pace. Our
latest weekly
Non .Com
gTLD Top 20 Sales Chart is dominated by .global domains
though. The new gTLD piled up 18 of the 23 chart entries
(the extra spots resulting from a four-way tie for the final
position) with all of those sales being premium names sold by
the DotGlobal
registry.

The highest sales in this category that you
haven't seen yet are a pair of names tied for #7 at $8,000
apiece. Sedo sold Penguin.club at the figure while
DotGlobal banked the same amount for Sports.global.
Rounding out the top ten are #9 RentalCars.global at $7,000
and #10 IDW.global at $5,200.

Here's how all of the Non .Com gTLD leaders
stacked up for the week ending Sunday, November 9:

There were more four-figure non .com gTLD
sales off the chart including 13 more of those premium .global sales
including Act.Global at $3,000 and two others at $2,900
each - BAC.global and CMS.global. TTG.global added
$2,500 while Tequila.global and Video.global went
for $2,400 apiece.

Elsewhere, Flippa.com picked up $1,666 for Registration.info,
$1,300 for MovieTrailers.net and $1,150 for Witches.org.
